5. Course Outcomes: After completion of the course students will be able to

1. 1.Characterize and appreciate computer networks from the view point of components
and from the view point of services
2. Display good understanding of the flow of a protocol in general and a network protocol
in particular
3. Model a problem or situation in terms of layering concept and map it to the TCI/IP stack
4. Select the most suitable Application Layer protocol (such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, DNS,
Bittorrent) as per the requirements of the network application and work with available
tools to demonstrate the working of these protocols.
5. Design a Reliable Data Transfer Protocol and incrementally develop solutions for
the requirements of Transport Layer
6. Describe the essential principles of Network Layers and use IP addressing to create
subnets for any specific requirements
